* Zoe of ''Webcomic/VenusEnvy'', being a teenage [[{{Transsexual}} transwoman]], uses little beanbag thingies to stuff her bra.

* Cat Grant from ''ComicBook/{{Superman}}'', after having been gone from the comics for several years, [[TheBusCameBack came back from California]] having had quite a bit of work done with breast augmentation being one of the more noticeable differences.
